Re: Week 2: So how's that Field Working?

I was not there, but listening to the webcast, it sounded pretty bad at GLR.

From what Copioli and Verbrugge were saying I suppose the Real Time Scoring system was sufficiently unreliable that it caused more confusion than help in knowing who was winning.

Also, it seemed like there were a lot of software lockups, mis-scored autonomous periods, and gremlins of 100 other kinds.

Is that pretty much how it seemed to those actually attending?

For what it is worth, my wife attended Friday AM and was baffled by the entire game. I think that was when the real time scoring system was totally off, so it kind of confirms my believe that this year's game really requires a reliable real time scoring system.
